Not Enough

None of it was ever enough.
Your hugs.
Your kisses.
Your promises.
Your comforting words.
They worked for a while.
It was just a quick fix.
Like fixing a leaky pipe
with a roll of duct tape.
I was the pipe,
Your words
The tape.
Soon the tape won't be enough.
The pipe will burst.
The tape just is not enough.
I think maybe thats how it will be.
For me.
It wasn't enough.
It wasn't enough to stop it the 1st time.
Perhaps...
It won't ever...
Be enough.
Curiosity took hold.
I can't exactly say why.
But whats done is done.
No going back.
I can't tell what you think.
I know I deserve it.
I deserve worse.
But...
What do you deserve?
Surely you couldn't have known...
It was simply a case of curiosity killed the cat.
But...
What if...
Next time...
Satisfaction...
Is not enough...
To bring it back?
